The S370- DL CPU card supports single Coppermine/Celeron and dual Coppermine/ Celeron (PPGA only) processors to give Slot 1 motherboard owners an inexpensive way to upgrade their Pentium II/III computers using lower costing socket 370 processors. Since socket 370 processors are designed on the Pentium II/III design, the only difference is the package form fac- tor. Additionally, the S370-DL CPU card can acquire temperature data from the processor’s thermal diode and send it to the motherboard that supports CPU thermal monitoring. The following page displays a picture of the ASUS S370-DL CPU card with black plastic retainers attached to the edges. The retainers are used to hold the ASUS S370-DL CPU card in place using the motherboard’s Slot 1 re- tention mechanisms.
